Hi everyone! If you have the time and desire, consider joining this request to get some Yuzu content on the "NHK World-Japan" platform. This platform is free and accessible by your computer browser or through your smart TV. If you are not familiar with the platform you are actually missing some interesting content as the platform delivers more than just news. NHK Worls-Japan also has a YouTube channel. There are very interesting programs with Yuzu that have been broadcast on NHK channls in Japan, and we could potentially have some of them available on NHK World-Japan, for example: Shinya Kiyozuka x Yuzu on "Figure Skating and Music", Ogensan, Switch interview with Yuzu x Koichi Domoto. Additionally, we can request and interview with Yuzu for the program "Face-to-Face". MIKIKO was interviewed last year but no content about Ice Story was included. Right now, there is an interview with Mika Ninagawa (AERA photshoots with Yuzu). This interview is very interesting, I really recommend it as it gives some glimpses to Japanese culture and language and you can see how some of Yuzu's ideas match with Ninagawa's (though the interview has nothing about Yuzu). You can submit your request here: https://m.youtube.com/user/NHKWorld

It's a very fascinating conversation and it makes a lot of sense when you get into how Shinto believes permeate different aspects of Japanese society and culture. That's also something that Mansai and Yuzu talked about. The full translation of the Mainichi article plus the translation of an extra transcript of the radio program is posted on the Translation Box-> 2025-> Notte Stellata 2025.

This part comes immediately after the section included in the previous article. Transcript was done by a Japanese fan. The translation is a machine translation, inaccuracies exist. Nomura: In a way, composing space within that kind of cosmology… it might be closer to mai (舞), rather than dance. Of course, dance can also have that element, but because it all begins in an empty space, creating a world within that space—that's probably the kind of plan you have in mind for your skating performances, isn’t it? Hanyu: Yes, I think so. And maybe, for me, there’s also a strong sense of offering(1) something.

Japan can be a very technologically advanced and at the same time extremely "analogous" society. Also, it's one of the countries with more proportion of older population, including 100 plus years of age. GIFT is available on Disney Plus though delivery stopped in Europe. You could watch it with VPN set up in Japan, Canada, etc. though. The othet Ice Stories have been live streamed and then have a 1 week archive period. I buy Blu-Rays from Japan because the Japanese zone for them is compatible with the Americas. Japanese DVD zone is compatible with Europe. There are Blu-ray/DVD players that are compatible with different zones though. You can also watch them on game consoles like Play Station.

Hi!!!! Prologue, GIFT, Notte Stellata 2023 and Notte Stellata 2024 are available in many online sites that offer international shipping: - Tower Records - Amazon Japan (you will need to create an Amazon Jp acc) CDJapan - Asmart (it has an English and a Japanese site, the DVD/Blu-Ray are on the Japanese site) Sometimes, Amazon Japan has DVD/Blu-Ray sales! A tip: if you start ordering more things from Japan, try ordering from the same site as you accumulate points and then can use them to get discounts 👍

Hi! The subbed video that was available on YouTube is gone and I can't find any backup. Can I use this text translation to add subs to the video?

2025.03.19 Spanish to English translation (no machine translation) Source: https://www.olympics.com/es/podcast/entrevista-javier-fernandez-personalidad-unica I used the one posted on Spotify for the transcription of the part of the conversation about Yuzu. Notes on the transcript: Q: Interviewer (Argentinian, so his verb conjugations are distinctive). Q2: Second interviewer (Spanish). J: Javier Fernández, Spanish figure skater. Translation Notes added. The Spanish transcript is after the English translation. Olympic Games Podcast -Interview with Javier Fernandez, unique personality inside and outside the ice (Conversation about Yuzuru 06:53 - 15:15) Q: Javi, continuing with this idea of expressing on the ice, you said it was one of your strengths, also Donovan’s. And if there’s a skater with “aura,” this word that’s trending on social media now, we have to mention Yuzuru Hanyu. He was a skater who combined both things, the technical side and this aura of expression. How would you describe Yuzuru in that sense?

That day, he had multiple media shoots, with ours being the last. Despite how tired he must have been, he arrived at the studio with a deep bow, saying, “Thank you for waiting! I look forward to working with you!” His thoughtfulness was enough to capture everyone’s hearts. The shoot lasted for quite some time, as it covered 20 pages. What truly impressed the editorial team was his incredible focus and how remarkably fast he adapted to the photographer’s requests. He would absorb each request in an instant and transform it into an expression that far exceeded our expectations. In the photos, he holds his own pair of skates—a moment that beautifully reflects his deep love for figure skating. When the shoot was over, he once again gave a deep bow and said, “Thank you very much! Great work, everyone!” before swiftly exiting the studio. Without thinking, the entire team burst into applause. Challenging a New Self Yuzuru Hanyu Special 30th Birthday Edition (p. 087) On December 7, 2024, Yuzuru Hanyu turned 30. Even now, he continues to train more rigorously than when he won Olympic gold. What lies at the core of a man who constantly strives to evolve? We explore his philosophy, beliefs, and unwavering drive.

Hi everyone! In case some of you want to watch Notte Stellata through Hulu Japan, I compiled some instructions on this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QQ57qTcyA-wU6b6n3HprNVv3MJr1Y7-7ccrqdmADfNo/edit?usp=drivesdk (I usually keep editing these docs based on what different users experience) You may also be interested in that Hulu Japan allows streaming the same content on two different devices at the same time (i.e. simultaneous streaming). This means that you can share your account with a fanyu friend. This can be a great solution to share the bill while still legally supporting Notte Stellata.
